Hi everyone,
This is my first proper post. My name is Chris Stanley and I run "Cosplay Chris" on Youtube. I'm based in Sydney, Australia and specialize in all things cosplay, movie reviews, prop building and collectable reviews. My laster endeavour has been a hybrid Bat suit for a convention, "Supanova" 2014.
The process started with a friend of mine design a custom cowl in a 3D program and then had said file 3d printed over at Shapeways.

I then took a silicone mold of the print after it had been filled and primed. This would allow me to produce rubber copies.

But eventually the idea was shelved dude to the cowl not sitting right once it was on my head.

I then had a buddy of mine design the body suit that was then printed onto 4 way stretch lycra

The gauntlets were from superhero gloves. I then added some armor plating by using plates from motorbike armor. Then added Batman Begins fins.

The utility belt was originally a tactical pouch belt. I then designed and sculpted the buckle and cast it in resin.

In the end I settled on a Batman Begins style cowl for the final suit. Really gives you the beastly look
Looks great and how much did the 3d print cost at shapeways?
